Ingredients

For the Pop Tarts

  • ¼ cup agave
  • 2 cups mixed berries or strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 packages of premade pie dough

For The Icing

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons meringue powder
  • 1 tablespoon clear vanilla
  • water
  • Festive sprinkles for garnish

Instructions

  • Start by making the homemade filling. In a small saucepot, combine the agave, mixed berries and chia seeds over medium-high heat. Cook for 6-8 minutes until berries breakdown and jam begins to thicken
  • When ready, set aside to cool and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Begin squaring off the pie dough. Cut desired squares of pie dough. Should be around 16 squares. You can reroll any unsed dough and make more squares
  • Line a greased baking sheet with half of the dough squares. This will be the bottom of the pop tart
  • Scoop a couple teaspoons of jam onto the center of each dough square on the baking sheet
  • Now dock the remaining pie squares. These will be the tops. Docking the dough creates small holes making for evenly cooked pastry and contained filling.
  • Top the pop tarts and crimp the edges together with a fork.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges begin to brown. The pastry will remain pretty light in color but have a golden tone
  • Set the pop tarts aside to cool. Enjoy or top with icing and sprinkles for a festive treat
  • For the Icing
  • In a small bowl stir together the powdered sugar, meringue powder and clear vanilla.
  • Add about 2 tablespoons of water until desired icing consistency. I like the consistency of honey.
  • Drizzle over cooled pop tarts and decorate with festive sprinkles while icing is wet. Enjoy right away or let the icing dry for about an hour if packaging them up.
